    If Harden gets it going, then we'll have a good shot, no doubt. I just think he looks completely exhausted, understandably so.

    Nurkic was too aggressive shoving his head back when he tried to go up on Nene. Nene gave retribution with a slap, but his wrist made contact instead with Nurkic's neck. Nothing short of an elbow or a punch will drop a 300+lb 7 footer like Nurkic. It was a huge flop.

    Harden keeps complaining to the refs, but he should know by now that they are butthurt. It's like dealing with the police. They suffered an embarrassing look to their shield that night in GSW. They are making a statement tonight; no calls for Harden at all. He should know and stop complaining.

    Not worried about harden at all, he will be back and get his. Worried about switching, Capela, and rebounding

    Have you ever made a positive post that wasn't about Dan Langhi or DMo?

    Not that I disagree completely about this one, but you are constantly negative and usually only pop up when the Rockets are behind. Do you even like basketball?

    Playing with no effort.

    Lose rebound again and again.

    Tucker is disappointed in recent games. Totally invisible.

    I have been here for a long time and yet it still never ceases to amaze me how quickly you guys panic and blow things wildly out of proportion. Hats off. It can't be easy on your knees to jerk them so radically all the time.

    When Damian or Curry drive we have to give them 2 feet of body space, when Harden drives they are pushing with their chest and arms diagonal.

    I'm worried about how Harden goes in downward spiral when he shoots bad. All aspects of his game falls apart when he starts shooting bad and starts concentrating on the ref game too much. It goes to his head too often and it's part of the reason why he has such memorably bad individual playoff performances.

    Hoping CP3 and EG come back sooner than later. Harden is clearly gassed.

    Harden not playing well and the only one stepping up is Austin Rivers. Just not going to cut it.
